Puerto Vallarta’s Zona Romántica is buzzing once again as Nacho Daddy kicks into full gear for its 18th season. After taking a brief summer break, the popular restaurant and bar reopened its doors in September, proving once again why it remains a favorite local spot for casual dining, cold drinks, and top-tier entertainment.
Sports fans are already filling the venue to catch every high-stakes moment on eight high-definition big screens. With the MLB postseason underway alongside regular weekly coverage of NFL, NHL, and NBA matchups, the energy inside is undeniable. Those looking for mid-week relaxation can swing by Monday through Friday from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm for daily drink specials.
The venue’s famed live music schedule officially launches on Friday, October 9th, with the return of the Texas Embassy Blues Band. Doors open at 8:00 pm, and the show starts at 8:30 pm, marking the group’s first performance of the season and setting a lively tone for blues lovers every Friday night.
Tuesdays offer a different kind of soundtrack. The ongoing Tuesday Happy Hour Concert Series continues to fill the giant high-definition screens from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, featuring iconic concert films each week. Guests can kick back to legendary performances while enjoying discount drink specials, including $25-peso Pacifico and Corona beers along with $40-peso house drinks and margaritas.
Classical music gets an unexpected, high-energy makeover on Sunday, October 18th at 7:30 pm, when the Madera Strings quartet takes the stage. Composed of first violinist Angie, second violinist Eugenia Prieto, violist Mariel, and double bassist Luis Rascón, the ensemble bridges centuries of sound. Their unique repertoire seamlessly transitions from Mozart to iconic anthems by Queen, Led Zeppelin, and Sam Smith. Tickets are available at the venue or through Eventbrite.
Charity Bingo is back on Wednesday, October 21. The afternoon features traditional, old-fashioned BINGO, with prizes donated by local restaurants and businesses. Held every other Wednesday, the community fundraiser offers an afternoon of games, food and prizes while raising money for a local cause – the Colina Spay and Neuter Clinic.
Powerhouse singer Brenda Gaviño returns on Thursday, October 29th at 7:30 pm for her Dia de Muertos Special Concert.
